some bugger nicked my spare tyre last night .. I drove away and the cage where the tyre is held dragged along the ground. I didn't realise it needed security chained and padlocked excuse me for wanting to warn people 'be aware' means just that ... if your spare is outside the boot it can get nicked edited to say: oh and Sean, I've never had a tyre nicked before so I'm certainly not weary about it .. in fact I'm going to be about ?100 worse off replacing it so I'd say my emotion was more feckin' narked

around 4am this morning we think am editing to say: people seem to think that 'more detail is needed'.. OK .. my neighbour disturbed someone around 4am trying to nick his spare tyre from his campervan. I smiled when he told me, 3 hours later drove away my Zafira to a rattling noise and found that some bugger had nicked my spare tyre (held in a cage under the car), Dell reckons ?100 to replace wheel and tyre. Someone has also nicked the fig trees from outside Heber School. I have reported to police. I thought I'd do my civic duty and warn you lot too.

hmmmmmm

Farmer Palmers sell blu-tac

I think I've spotted the catch(es): it's a christian school (atheists and other world religions need not apply I assume); it offers a generally unrecognised certificate rather than A'Levels or baccalaureate and it costs 7K per year per child that'll be 3, did I miss any? :) edited to say I've found their website: here

Thanks .. I didn't realised he'd left but this would be enough to make me change chemist. Agree that he is extremely helpful and kind.

so drive and park within the legal limits

and it is by far one of my preferred shops in ED. Friendly, courteous and helpful, particularly the bloke. I don't know what the locked and empty thread was about but it seems to be intimating a problem and I thought I'd redress the balance.

Good news I wonder whether what we need is a free-for-all bag dump on Lordship Lane .. because whilst I have these bags at home I do occasionally go out without mine and then need to buy stuff But .. if there was a stack of these bags in a convenient place, say outside a number of shops up and down, and I could grab one or two for my shopping and then bring them back and put them back in the collective store.. that'd be fab! And you'd never find me with my somerfield or Iceland plastic bag again and I would return them too (eventually)

no Cassius, not old. Just lucky not to have kids' tv on. Lelli Kelly shoes arrrgghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Just looked in window - it sells Lelly Kelly shoes - yuk, yuk, yuk - chavtastic

it's funny .. I've always been pleasant to them .. I've smiled and said hello when I passed .. I've stepped out of their way if they're having difficulty walking and do you know what .. they are perfectly civil to me, even cordial at times. Alcoholism is a disease, as is drug addiction, and I am not implying that they are either but those are the assumptions being made - some people are born with less advantages than others - fiscal and mental advantages in life and dumb luck are factors in where people are. These threads make me feel sick. God you should be ashamed of yourselves.

Jack is James' son - James is a lovely bloke food is great, service is slow but intensely pleasant - the only thing I hate is when people speak in really loud, I'm the only person in the room, voices in there. Because it's a sanctuary and quite small - sotto voices only please.

multi-quote sites and individual sites default to a 'can't quote online, please call' stance. Is it because of the clay soils in ED

LOL @ mightyroar ... yes dear that's what happens, of course it is. There's no way that they find their own natural routines and sleep through the night through to past 8am from an early age and have good patterns of daytime sleep without an imposed routine developed by a childless woman with no qualifications who styles herself as a 'maternity nurse' which actually, if you look into it, means nothing. No way at all. Oh wait a minute ... I have anecdotal evidence that there is if that's of any use at all? no?

given them away? god I burned mine ... odious and useless IMO why can't your baby sleep when it wants to and awake when it needs to? edited to add: I fully appreciate however that how you raise your baby is totally up to you and none of my business

In law at the moment the website proprieter is the 'publisher' and responsible for all comments posted, so whilst any discussion may start out fine, one simple defamatory comment can result in legal action against 'Admin'. It's not as easy a subject as you seem to think and is certainly not the same as a conversation down the pub with 'admin' being the friendly landlord.. s/he is responsible for what is posted and can be held liable. Stupid law.

I think sports is an appalling specialism when there is already a girl's school with supposed great sports facilities (although as they don't even have a swimming pool that is an odd statement). Surely the boys school could benefit from these 'facilities' and bring something new to the offering for the boys and girls of Harris Academies to share and benefit from. I would actually prefer any other specialism at all: technology or arts or music or enterprise or, dare I suggest Science, Mathematics or Languages

I have to say if Monica is Health Matters then they are the epitome of helpful service and Dr Boo could learn an awful lot from going in there and asking advice on any of their products.

I think the staff in Dr Boo are probably helpful to people who dress in the latest fashions and look like they have money. If in fact you go in on a day when you're dressed casually because you feel like a pick-me-up and think you'll splash out on some unction or snake oil and then get ignored as 2 girls cluster round an over-dressed dolly of a woman and the person behind the till decides to studiously examine a new shipment. No I can't think of anything to recommend the place actually! As for MBTs .. ROFL .. Masai Barefoot Technology? ... sniggers

that's a shame! nice people

Personally I can't help feeling sorry for the neighbours who are complaining about the potential noise of any change in usage. They no doubt have homes and families and don't want their current living standards to be detrimentally affected by a change in a business's usage. Bars are not the be-all and end-all of an area, the people who live here are though.

We bought what were laughingly called 'brioche' from there a couple of weeks ago. I don't know what they were but they weren't even close to being brioche .. nor actually that close to being edible.

lordshiplane.co.uk has interactive maps edited to say: ignore that I've just looked and they seem rather low on information
